    * bisect: better message for unrelated starting revisions
    * bookmarks: Check if the bookmark to delete exists on the remote
    * bookmarks: guard against listing bookmarks on unsupported repos
    * chunkbuffer: use += rather than cStringIO to reduce memory footprint
    * convert: Using --dest-type svn crashed, if the source repo used tags.
    * convert: properly set encoding for gnuarch converter
    * convert: use encoding.encoding instead of locale.getpreferredencoding()
    * encoding: improve handling of buggy getpreferredencoding() on Mac OS X
    * graphlog: mark --branch as incompatible with --graph
    * http basic auth: reset redirect counter on new requests (issue2255)
    * httprepo: decompress stream incrementally to reduce memory usage
    * log: fix the bug 'hg log --stat -p == hg log --stat'
    * mercurial.spec: gettext is a build requirement for getting proper localization
    * merge: drop reference to file contents after write
    * merge: move reverse-merge logic out of filemerge (issue2342)
    * merge: fix detection of conflict markers with checkconflicts enabled
    * mq: don't inherit default and default-push paths with --mq (issue2333)
    * resolve: updated help documentation for improved clarity
    * revlog: drop cache after use to save memory footprint
    * templatefilters: unnest uescape()
    * templates: add filenolink to raw style (issue2332)
    * url: expand vars in all [auth] settings (issue2328)
    * url: limit expansion to safe auth keys (Issue2328)
    *

      util: avoid using hashlib on Python < 2.5 (issue2278)
    * verify: initialize rp variable in case we hit out of memory
    * verify: reduce memory footprint when unpacking files
    * verify: report exceptions that don't have a str() method
    * win32: correctly break hardlinks on network drives (issue761)

I suggest you turn this into (or replace it with) a sync request from Debian experimental.

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SyncRequestProcess

As it adds no new features, it probably doesn't need a feature freeze exception.
